Labor (Day) Pains

Friday, September 3rd, 2010

labor-day Like most Americans,  I really do not have a good grasp on the real meaning of Labor Day. 

Like most Americans all I really know is the bottom line:  We get Monday off.

Yes, it all boils down to a 3 day weekend.

So in an effort to be more patriotic, conscientious and to honor the TRUE meaning of Labor Day I have decided to take action.

I am putting the “Labor” back in Labor Day – bootcamp style.

Monday morning at 9:30am I will be coaching a FREE bootcamp for any and all who wish to attend.

Be The Pig

Tuesday, August 31st, 2010

FictionThere are many things is life that can be reduced to either fiction or fact.

Here is an example of fiction:  It is too late for you to change your body and your health because you are (pick any) too old, too tired, too busy, too many kids, work weird hours, too much of a giant wuss etc.

factBut here is a truth:  Nothing is more powerful than the human mind.  If you believe it, you can make it happen.  I have seen it more times than I can count.

And to that end I say be the pig.

I Discovered Faster Fat Loss

Tuesday, August 10th, 2010

wc_flush_toilet_tshirt-p235140987162130122uwjq_400 Hey gang,

I’m not sure if you have noticed, but I have been quiet (email wise) of late.  That’s because I have been working on a bunch of super-secret projects.  2 projects are for other trainers, to help them get better results with their clients (ala my 6 week transformation.)

I have a MASSIVE project I can’t tell you about yet BUT…

ONE thing I have been working on is just for you.

Now you know me, never satisfied (insert “that’s what she said” joke.)  So I am always tweaking and testing to try to get better results.

Are You As Strong As A 2nd Grader?

Friday, July 30th, 2010

Here is my son Gabriel.  He is 7 years old and tips the scale at a whopping 50 pounds.  Below is a photo I snapped of Gabe deadlifting 70 lbs.  That’s just shy of 1.5 x his bodyweight.

I know that you think that it is only due to him being gifted with superhuman strength due to his superior genetic line.   Yup, that’s it. 

Just kidding.

It is just because kids are (relatively) strong and strength is something we lose as we sit on our fat butts as we get older.

Who’s Awesome?

Wednesday, June 30th, 2010

Drew’s Awesome!

drew

Drew was one of 18 people who kicked serious ass during our last 6 Week Body Transformation.    The funny thing is Drew’s scale hardly moved during the whole 6 weeks.   He actually GAINED a couple  pounds.  But when we ran the numbers he dropped around 11 pounds and gained 12 pounds of muscle. TRULY AWESOME.

I wanted to say a personal congrats to Drew, and to all the 6WBT participants, you all did GREAT!!!

I Completely Forgot (sorry)

Tuesday, June 22nd, 2010

I totally forgot to SHOW you some of the results we got last time we ran the C-Diet. 

As you probably already know 16 participants lost a total of 242 pounds, plus 61 inches off their waists.  That AVERAGES out to over 15 lbs lost each, and 4 inches GONE from their waists.

EACH PERSON!!!

Here are just 2 examples, Karen and Perry.  Each lost over 20 pounds and 5 inches from their waist in only 28 days.

perry

Yes, that is only 28 days later…

Who Else Wants to Lose 19lbs in 28 Days? (video exclusive)

Monday, June 21st, 2010

I have been getting a lot of questions regarding the specifics of the “C-Diet” and how we have been able to get such amazing results. 

To be honest it is one part art, and one part science (which of course doesn’t mean sh*t without TOTAL commitment on your part).

So I put together this exclusive video in which I run through the theory of the C-Diet rapid fat loss plan (plus I even give away a few secrets)

Check it out…

Static Shock

Friday, May 14th, 2010

Here is a workout we did with our bootcamp the other day.  It’s a very basic but ass-kicking bodyweight workout that should do you in in only 20-25 minutes (plus you can do it about anywhere).  It involves static contractions coupled with similar dynamic moves.  Check out the video…

Here it is, for 5 total rounds…

A1) Plank x 60 secs
A2) Toe Touches x 10 reps
B1) Wall Squat x 60 secs
B2) Jump Squats x 10 Reps
C1) Push Ups Planks x 60 secs
C2) Push Ups x 10 Reps
